Fans of New World wines will rejoice at this mixed box of premium new world wines. From Australia, WolfBlass Presidents Selection Cabernet Sauvignon won a silver medal at the International Wine Challenge. The winery also took home 17 Double Gold Medals, 12 Gold Medals and 3 Silver, all at one wine show. From New Zealand 2 of the top Sauvignon Blancs from Hunters and Lawson Dry Hills. A New World selection would be incomplete without the 'Best Pinot Noir in the NZ Wine Awards' - Pencarrow Pinot Noir from Martinborough won this award and the wine is sublime. Lastly, Dublin man Edwin sold his last few cases of Chateau Petrus, so he could fill his new winery with tanks to ferment wine on his farm in South Africa. The result is a Pinotage and a Shiraz in this case that are fast becoming one of South Africa's top Wine estates.

Vibrant berry and fleshy blood-plum fruits meld with spice and dark chocolate. A plush, rich palate resulting in a wine of great power and elegance. If ever proof was needed that the best vineyards in McLaren Vale fared remarkably well in '12, this wine provides it. The flavours are precise, reflecting perfectly ripened fruit, with some dark chocolate along with the generous French and American oak'
